As you pull into the driveway, the noise of the day melts away and you’re instantly transported to your own Steele Creek mountain retreat. Surrounded by wooded views and rustic charm, this two-story log cabin feels like a peaceful escape—yet when you head back out, you’re just minutes from premium outlets, restaurants, the airport, Hwy 77, and I-485. Truly the best of both worlds.
Inside, the open-concept layout is warm and inviting. The kitchen features a large island, stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and beautiful views of the lot—perfect for everyday living. The primary bedroom is conveniently located on the main floor with a full bath, while upstairs offers two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom. Relax on the covered front porch swing or rocking chairs, or entertain on the side covered porch with vaulted ceilings. A powered detached building in the back offers great potential for storage or an ADU with a little TLC. Sold “as is,” this charming cabin blends peaceful retreat living with unbeatable city convenience.
